Play resumed at 6:10 p.m. EDT Friday at the Texas Children’s Houston Open after a two-hour, nine-minute weather delay. The PGA Tour halted second-round action at 4:01 p.m. due to thunderstorms in the area.
The morning wave completed their rounds before the suspension, with the clubhouse lead sitting at 11 under par.
Rory McIlroy, the world’s second-ranked player, was through seven holes of his second round when play stopped. He was 1 under for both the day and tournament, putting him in a precarious position with the projected cut line at 2 under.
